Patent EP-0762557-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LAMPERT NORMAN ROGER
IPC: H01R13/639
Filed: 1996-08-21
Abstract: A duplex connector 300 is constructed by joining together a pair of simplex
connectors 10-10 using one or more plastic clips 210. Each simplex connector
includes a latch 120 for interlocking it with a jack receptacle 40, and each simplex
connector includes a pair of pin-receiving holes 103-104, 163-164 on its opposite side
surfaces. Each clip includes a first planar structure 211 having a pair of cylindrical
pins 203-204. 263-264, having different diameters, in each of two different regions
that are press-fit into the pair of simplex connectors. In one configuration, a single
clip 210 is used to join the pair of simplex connectors together, side-by-side, to form a
horizontally stacked duplex connector 300. In this configuration, a second planar
structure 212 is pivotally attached to the top edge 214 of the first structure to prevent
snagging, and to enable the user to manually deflect both latches 120-120
simultaneously. In another configuration, a pair of clips 510-510 are used to join the
simplex connectors together, one on top of the other, to form a vertically stacked
duplex connector 500. In this configuration, the anti-snag feature is provided by
cantilever triggers 130-130 that are mounted on each simplex connector adjacent to
the latches.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus (40) for digitizing an
electromagnetic input signal (Sm) having frequency components
within at least first and second segregated frequency
bands, particularly useful in a wireless communications
system. The apparatus includes a filtering circuit (54, 56, 58)
arrangement for passing only frequency components of the
input signal substantially within the first and second
frequency bands, to provide a filtered signal having a
spectrum with spectral components below a predetermined
power level within a frequency gap between the first and
second frequency bands. An analog to digital (A/D)
converter (60) samples the filtered signal at a sampling rate
sufficient to provide a digitized output signal with a
frequency spectrum corresponding to that of the filtered
signal and also with a replica of spectral components of
one of the frequency bands appearing within the frequency
gap. Preferably, the sampling rate used is less than the
Nyquist sampling rate for the composite frequency band
extending from the lowest to highest frequencies of the 
two bands. This allows a single A/D converter to be
employed to sample the filtered signal, even when a large
frequency gap exists between the segregated bands. A
single mixer stage (42, 44) can then be used in conjunction with
the single A/D converter (60) in a wireless communications
receiver application.

transmission unit incorporates a multi-speed
transmission (42,44) and a lockable planetary
differential (68) and further includes an input shaft (46),
an output shaft (32,38), and connecting drive
and driven gears. Two alternative torque paths
are provided to a quill shaft (60) from
the output shaft. One of these paths is a high-range
path (64) and the other of these is a
low-range path (66). The two torque paths are directed
through a synchronizer clutch (62) between
low-range and high-range. One end of the
quill shaft (60) is connected to the
low-high synchronizer clutch (62) and the other end is
connected to the lockable differential (68,70).

shaft is split by the differential when
in its unlocked mode with a portion going to the
rear wheels and a portion going to the
front wheels. A front axle synchronizer clutch (72)
assembly is provided to allow the front
axle to be disengaged for two-wheel drive
operation, in which case the differential is locked.

Abstract: Statistical methods are used to estimate the reflectance (250) of paper
and align the tone gamut to the dynamic range of a digital input device such as
a scanner during a single scan. A histogram (230) of the occurrence of each
tone level is accumulated during the scan. The background colour of the
image, i.e. the tone value of the paper is estimated by analysing the histogram
(230). When this value is known, the parameters for a tone reproduction
curve (TRC) (270) can be calculated (260). The shape of the TRC (270) is
not altered by these parameters, i.e. the exposure can be controlled
independently of the tone reproduction. This process is repeated from time to
time during the scan. This increases the robustness with respect to
unfavourable originals (e.g. originals with a dark border) and at the same time
also can take into account such phenomena as the change of the response of
the sensor due to thermal effect during slow scans.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the domain of digital signal
processing and, more precisely, the methods and apparatus employed in the
reduction of visibility of blockiness in images or video sequences encoded
using block-based coding techniques such as MPEG. 
     The present invention detects a level of blockiness between blocks in an
image and applies a variable filter across the block boundaries. The filter
parameters are chosen depending on the level of blockiness detected. If no
blockiness is detected then no filtering is performed on the image. 
     An important aspect of the present invention reduces the false detection of
naturally occurring blockiness in images by analysing the image both spatially
and temporally.

Abstract: A vector map representation of page information to
perform trapping. The vector map representation combines
the positive attributes of both raster and vector based
representations to make trapping more efficient by
combining the sparseness of the vector representation and
the constant unit complexity of the raster
representation. In the preferred embodiment of the
invention, a page is defined by tiles, and each tile is
mapped to a 2-D array of edge pointers referred to as the
vector map. Each cell in the vector map contains a list
of all of the edges of the image that pass through it. A
pair of edges can only interact if they are in the same
vector map cell list. Thus, edge intersection and color
finding tests are localized as with raster based trapping
while the data sparseness of vector based trapping is
retained. For a suitably chosen vector map size, a single
edge generally does not intersect many cells. A trapping
function is applied to edges as determined from the
vector map.

Abstract: A Yankee hood is disclosed for use in drying wet paper webs. The Yankee will provide a manufacturer to operate at supply temperatures above 1000 DEG F at lower total energy costs and at increased production. All major components, supply fans, flow concentrator, air flow equalization plenum and gas burner are consolidated and are mounted directly on the device to eliminate the need for additional space requirements. The hood assembly includes an internal high impingement air system which is supported on a floating structural support member. The nozzle impingement system which incorporates a plurality of nozzle boxes will cover approximately a 240 DEG  wrap of a typical Yankee cylinder which will be decoupled from its main support end plate members to allow for increases in cross-machine expansion. The support structure for the externally located direct drive motor is designed to eliminate hood vibrations and operate above the natural building frequency. <IMAGE>

supporting opposite ends of the roller assembly (16). The arm
